Sounds like a result.

Nothing of importance is achieved without sacrifice.  What are you - man or mouse?

You could try what I did once, remove the shelves from within the dish washer and hide them.
See her get out of that

I have a dishwasher but rarely use it... is there something wrong with me? It looks very nice mind, but only seems to be used when we have guests.
Otherwise it is either the missus or me that washes the dishes. Must get the children more used to this as part of my child-slavery policy

Gee, it's nice living alone!   I can load the dishwasher however I like, run it at any time of the day or night, or opt not to do the dishes at all!

A stern female finger pointing at the stack of paper plates warded me away from the dishwasher. They're cheap and biodegradable, right? Renewable resource and all that, right?

How I got out of the dishwasher dilemma!

Kinda like Ozzy said, I don't belive using the dishwasher is nessecery (as it's just me and the ol'lady), unless we have a bunch of family or friends over to eat. But the wife don't like to do dishes by hand, and eventually loads up the dish washer untill I can't find a clean plate or utinsiles ,
utensals, knife, fork or spoon, and God help her, my coffee mug. And like you said SHE expects me to unload it.

So here's how to get out of this wishywashy situation.
First, make sure your lady ain't looking over your shoulder as you read this!

You got to make like your giving in. OK honey use your dishwasher, have fun. Now you are throwing her off, everythings OK.So now what you do is after your done eating,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Wash your own dishes. Let her pileup her own stuff in the dishwasher, and when your stuff is dry put them away in the cupboard (or where ever you put them).Now what ever you do ignore the situation and when she thinks YOUR going to empty the blasted washer, just go and get you clean frosty mug, fill it with a beverage of your choice and go about your buisness as if nothing is going on. She'll get the message and empty the darn thing herself! , OK gotta run, I hear her coming down to my chambers.
